Since my recent experience with tachycardia, I thought it would be of interest to some of the device I purchased shortly after my event.
Here it is: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07D5JLN5K/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I tried this out last night for a test. You can also apply the pads like a regular EKG or you can hold it in both hands and it will give you a 30 second read. After the test, it will come up with a page that gives you an analysis. You can save up to 200 tests in the memory. I am keeping it right at the head of my bed in case the tachycardia returns. I can the send the report to my computer and have it come out as a .pdf file which I will print and take to my doctor. Since my tachycardia has been very sporadic, as my past experience was, having this to substantiate my claims, instead of feeling like a fool in the ambulance heading to the ER, means a great deal to me.
If you have heart issues, this device could be a life saver for real.

My wife and I spent a week there a year ago. I wish I had known about this.

Maui auction is this year. Last year I donated a rare, signed, limited edition print. You can always come back.
Aloha!

Maybe will one day.
I would organise it different though. Stayed at this resort, not really my thing, unless one likes to sit around a pool all day drinking cocktails.
The highlight was going up to the top of the mountain at 4.00am to see the sunrise (It was below freezing point I'm sure) this is 1st pic of the sunrise.
Then we were watching the whale as we had breakfast on the terrace.
Ohh, and I bought Jeff Beck "Loud Hailer" at a record shop.

Royal Lahaina Resort in Kāʻanapali. I stayed there many years ago. Last time I stayed in Kāʻanapali was at the Westin on the other side of Black Rock. It's next to Whalers Village and a whole lot more fun. They have a huge water slide and swim up bar. lol! I prefer small and more intimate places. Resorts tend to be like Las Vegas or Disneyland.
A recent photo from when friends came to visit. Diver on Black Rock. Lots of fish, eels and occasionally turtles. I've heard whales singing while snorkeling there.
Summer solstice at sunset, just below the summit of Haleakalā. I'm going up for sunrise on New Years morning.
Endangered False Killer Whales cavorting with Spinner Dolphins off the coast of Lanai across from Maui. Sightings of False Killer Whales is so rare, the Pacific Whale Foundation asked me to donate a bunch of photos I took. The encounter was incredibly special. Plus there was 150+ Spinner Dolphins according to the ship's biologist. Freakin' awesome!
Joe, the owner of Request Music. Used vinyl is downstairs.
EDIT: He also has a pretty good collection of vintage comics for $1-2. Nothing that would fetch a mint, but super cool!
Having a knowledgeable guide helps you to really experience up close and more.
See you next time!

Maybe I can talk the wife into visiting Maui sometime in February. Meanwhile, I've been re-learning how to design PCBs, and it's been a real struggle. I'm beginning to think there's something true in that folklore about old dogs and new tricks. Am I the only one who has this problem, or is it just because I back away from the workstation a lot sooner than I used to when the going gets tough?
I dunno man. A couple years ago I interviewed for a engineering job that was 80% doing PLC system design, programming and start-up back in the production side of the oil biz. I was really good at that stuff before I took a 30 year break doing cell sites. I was sweatin' the prospect of jumping back into that frying pan, didn't get the job and will never know about this old dog and old tricks.
